TL;DR: Advances in brain imaging, technology, and understanding of the pathophysiology should ultimately lead to improved treatment of the disorder, which should be individualised to the child.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of endoscopic third ventriculostomy alone and combined with choroid plexus cauterization in infants younger than 1 year of age: a prospective study in 550 African children
TL;DR: The ETV-CPC was more successful than ETV alone in infants younger than 1 year of age and may be the best option for treating hydrocephalus in infants, particularly for those with NPIH and myelomeningocele.

Journal ArticleDOI
Evidence for the ventral origin of oligodendrocyte precursors in the rat spinal cord.
TL;DR: Observations suggest that commitment to an oligodendrocyte differentiative pathway appears to occur in a distinct population of ventrally located glial precursors in the embryonic rat spinal cord.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Investigation of the causes of hydrocephalus in Uganda, the efficacy of endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV) in this environment, and whether existing parameters could be used to guide patient selection found ETV was effective.
